My Blood Is Blue Report post Posted January 17 Just now, Bob Singleton said: In which case Marina is going to be really busy, given we still have 3 defenders potentially leaving in the summer who will need replacing! I think Azpi and Rudiger will stay and I think a deal for Kounde may well get done just after this window, for him to come in next summer. Saul will go back to Atletico, Barkley and maybe RLC will be moved on, Gallagher will take that place and then I think we might see two out and two in, in the front 3 positions.

The good thing is according to reports Christensen despite changing his demands twice when the club thought they'd had an agreement has decided that he won't join a Premier League club out of respect for Chelsea . What a lovely gesture as he robs us of forty million pounds revenue . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
asvaberg Report post Posted January 17 (edited) Isn't it unfair not to look at the offensive midfield when you compare forward's scoring efficiency like this? What do we have now - what did we have in the seasons we did well, "scoringwise". Fabregas says hello :) Edited January 17 by asvaberg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He'd go for free, wherever Only because he's run his contract down , he could have signed an extension , we could have then sold him for around forty million pounds , that's what would normally happen at a properly run club , so far we've lost Courtois , Hazard and now Christensen for nothing with all possibilities that Rudiger and Azpillicueta will follow.

We got 35m for Courtois, and anywhere between 85 and 100m for Hazard (depending on what you read).......And we got the absolute best of him. Don't see the issue there.

How many assists do Rodri, Fernandinho contribute? Also, I constantly hear how great a playmaker Jorginho is. Why can't he do what Fabregas did? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
